Seattle Sounders and CF Montréal meet in a league game where both still have something to play for from here. The hosts sit 7th and need points to shore up their position, while the visitors are 15th and have just sunk into back-to-back defeats. Seattle Sounders return home after losing at home once, but before that they put together a run of wins and scored more than one goal in nearly every match, so the attack can still be trusted. CF Montréal, meanwhile, have lost back-to-back games, have conceded a lot all season, and their away defence is not especially solid. This game is likely to open with the hosts controlling the tempo and pushing high, while the visitors will probably sit deep and wait to counter. If Seattle Sounders take the lead first, the game will open up further and there is a chance the scoreline widens in the second half. But if the first half stays tight, the hosts should step up the pace and pile on the pressure until the visitors cannot hold out.
